A pal ‘o mine apparently tossed my logo into an #AI machine and it spat this retro classic out. Of note, we have no idea where the brain robot got the “HUSSAN” at the bottom, so that’s hilarious! Also, that’s not really me, but it’s fun. #NotQuiteArt #AritificialHallucination
Just to get a sense of how brilliant #BradBird is when it comes to #animation, check out this ancient pencil test from his post-CalArts days at #Disney. It’s formatted as a trailer for “The Spirit”, an adaptation of Will Eisner’s #comics. Watch. www.youtube.com/watch
#BradBird is back directing #animation with his original script “Ray Gunn” which is already in production. Animation will be handled by #Cinesite and #Skydance Animation Madrid and is a #scifi #noir about the last human detective. #movies www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-f…
So, this #techbro wannabe was so far up his own ass that he overpromised and had to fake it. Don’t believe these idiots and their claims over #AI. This is as legit as companies worth billions that don’t make any revenue. #tech #scams #fraud #FAFO #capitalism yro.slashdot.org/story/25/…
Just a simple reminder… #TFG’s “No More DEI” means an end to #diversity, #equity, and #inclusion. No more people of color. No more recognition that other cultures are also human beings. All to be replaced with institutionalized #racism. #truthbomb #fucktrump
I’ve blogged about #advertising before. I hate it, and I’m not alone. Kōdō Simone feels the same way and calls for abolishing all advertising, not just regulating it. I’m all in for this idea. It’s a cancer… a disease… a blight and it needs to go. #capitalism boingboing.net/2025/04/0…
You’ll need $450K, but for that you’ll get the most beautiful car ever made, built by hand in Italy from all bespoke parts and 98% sourced from Italian suppliers, all but the batteries for the EV version. #AlfaRomeo #TotemAutomobili #cars www.youtube.com/watch
LOLZ. Today #Adobe posted their first message on #Bluesky. Also today, Adobe deleted their first message on Bluesky because the response was nearly 1,500 former customers they’ve pissed off with literally everything they’ve been doing for a decade. #art #ai #capitalism
While it remains unknown what technology #Nintendo has developed for the new #Switch2 #JoyCons, it is crystal clear that they have done everything in their power to prevent another stick drift debacle. And yet Mario’s Dad won’t confirm what, so we’ll have to wait. #videogames www.theverge.com/news/6444…
We used to say #FuckCancer. Well, now it’s fuck cancer sufferers as #Trump’s war on #democracy has claimed victims at the #NIH, halting the development of treatments of a breakthrough in #gastrointestinal cancers. So, #FuckTrump. #uspol #healthcare #protests science.slashdot.org/story/25/…
I am all there for this. You’ll understand when you watch this one minute teaser. They clearly knew they had to nail this 110% on first reveal, and I believe they did. #movies #nakedgun #movietrailers www.youtube.com/watch
If you are tempted to watch Gerard Butler’s 2017 disaster movie disaster “Geostorm” because it’s trending on #Netflix, don’t. My wife put it on our watchlist not knowing that it has an 18% #RottenTomatoes score. It’s terrible, like 2020’s “Greenland”. #movies www.slashfilm.com/1825458/g…
As heartbreaking as it seems, #Nintendo’s pricing for the #Switch2 and its games is not an increase over previous years. For more details on the why and how of that, check out Nintendo Forecasts' video on the matter. #videogames #inflation #economics www.youtube.com/watch
I’m not sure the downside indicated is an actual downside. From all indications, the #LiveAction How To Train Your Dragon is fantastic, bucking the trend of such remakes. I just hope the flying scenes evoke the same emotions as the originals. #movies #animation #httyd www.slashfilm.com/1825943/h…
Um… yeah. Realign your perspective on #AI. #Capitalism doesn’t intend to leverage AI for the betterment of humanity. Instead, they plan on using it in conjunction with a range of other technologies to eliminate humans from the money-making process. #tech arstechnica.com/tech-poli…
#TFG’s #tariffs have prompted #Nintendo to pause pre-orders for the #Switch2 in the #US which were going to start on April 9th so Nintendo can evaluate the rapidly changing economic landscape. Fans are already unhappy about Switch 2 pricing. #videogames #news kotaku.com/switch-2-…
#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Lee Ritenour & Mike Stern w/ The Freeway Band Live at Blue Note Tokyo (2011). John Beasley on keys, Melvin Lee Davis on bass, and the incomparable Simon Phillips on the drums with an epic solo at around 54 minutes. #music #jazz #jazzfusion www.youtube.com/watch
Ford brought a version of the #Ford #Sierra over here and called it the #Merkur XR4Ti. Despite being better, it barely sold thanks to shitty dealerships upselling buyers to shitty #Lincolns for higher commissions. This is why we can’t have nice things. #cars #capitalism www.youtube.com/watch
#Nintendo #Switch2 pricing for the US:
Switch 2: $449 Switch 2 + Mario Kart World: $499
The systems will be available starting June 5th. Accessory prices (i.e., Pro Controller, Switch 2 Camera, etc) not yet available. #videogames #MarioKart #NorthAmerica
Wow. This really sucks. Val Kilmer has died at the age of 65 of pneumonia. There’s not much more, but it’s terrible. #hollywood #acting #movies #RIP www.reuters.com/world/us/…
Updates are available across the board for #Apple devices, including the #Mac, #iPhone, #iPad, #AppleWatch, #AppleTV, and more. watchOS 11.4 was pulled yesterday, but has now been released. Mr. Macintosh has details about the updates & OCLP support. #tech #howto www.youtube.com/watch
If you’re a #tech #dweeb like me, you’ll love this new video from the totally legitimate #TechDweeb with an important announcement! #AprilFools #videogames #RetroGameCorps. www.youtube.com/watch

Good news, everyone! Okay, just #animation lovers, but it’s still great news! Warner Bros. CEO Zaslav vaulted Coyote VS. ACME for tax reasons, but it’s now being released by Ketchup, makers of The Day The Earth Blew Up. It’s official, but we don’t have a date yet. #movies www.slashfilm.com/1823161/c…
I’m definitely a fan of #RetroComputing, but my allegiance clearly lies with #Apple rather than #Microsoft. My old PCs run #Linux or #Haiku, but I get what retro #Windows peeps want. So, if you want to install #Windows98 quickly, here you go. #tech #howto #utilities boingboing.net/2025/03/3…
